Danny Huston has signed on to the Columbia Pictures film 30 DAYS OF NIGHT, an adaptation of a horror comic book. He will join Josh Hartnett and Melissa George.

The story takes place in an Alaskan town where 30 days of continual winter darkness attracts a horde of hungry vampires. Hartnett and George will play a husband-and-wife sheriff team who try to save the town's residents. Huston will play the leader of the vampires.

David Slade is directing the film from a script by Stuart Beattie (Collateral). Filming is expected to begin shortly.
